Why does everything have a Year One now. I saw a Sherlock Holmes Year One book the other day in the comic shop.

People love origin stories. That's why Hollywood can't seem to make a superhero movie that isn't one.

So, Flash #23 finally reveals the identity of the new Reverse Flash and it's... unsurprising. Pretty much textbook Checkov's Gun. I'm a little disappointed. Rather than the "OH SHIT!" I blurted out when Hunter Zolomon became Zoom, when they revealed the new RF, I pretty much just said "Of course it is."

Or can he only run real fast backwards? |

Eh, The Reverse Flash reveal was fine, not everything has to be an OMG TWIST REVEAL. So East of West is probably my favorite comic right now. Batman #23 Yes Father, I shall become a bat. East of West #5 Death and his (former?) wife have a conversation. After this issue it is probably my favorite comic coming out right now. This issue was soooo good. Superior Spider-Man is still lots of fun, and next Spock takes on Spider-Man 2099!  Infinity / Avengers / New Avengers is still really epic, and infinity is raising the bar.  |

NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I wonder what book they'll be working on next. I rarely, if ever, follow creative teams rather than characters, but I think I would pretty much read the illustrated phone book if it was Manapaul and Buccallato. I'm secretly hoping it's Earth 2. |

That Injustice Gods Among Us series was pretty good. Don't think I've ever read a DC comics story line before.

Big Fables sale going on on comixology right now if anybody else is a reader of it. I was 3 trades behind so I took this opportunity to switch to digital (similarly I was a couple trades behind in Invincible a few months ago when there was a big sale on so I switched to digital back then too)
I think at this point I've now switched to completely digital on all books that I had been reading in collected volumes, the space saves are gonna be insane, hell I wish I could somehow convert my current trad paper back to digital, that'd be awesome.

Turns out they're heading to Detective Comics. Maybe 'Tec will quit sucking now. |

I swear, every time I go to the comixology site I drop at leat 20 bones. I bought a bunch of the DC vol1 books that were 5 each and a smathering of the AvX ones. I don't even really read DC comics, so that whole Suicide Squad thing better not suck.
